Good looking gun. Personal opinion, and I'm ordering a compact on Monday, but I think the proportions are off in the appearance of the service model. The grip is too long for the overall length of the gun. I like aesthetically pleasing guns, like a good hi-power, 1911, new service, colt detective, M-29, super blackhawk, etc. Barrels should be longer than grips.

Granted; that has no effect on it's intended purpose.

What's up Ship? FN visitor here.

I recently bought the 45 in black/Flat Dark Earth. It is one nice piece. Looking at it I kind of wish I bought the SS version.

Well, I knew I wanted the stainless slide. I was gonna get the stainless with the black frame until they came out with these variations a couple of months back. I kinda wanted the dark earth with the stainless slide. But, the one in my shop had some scratches on the slide, and the gun show didn't have that color. 1 vendor only had 1 of the OD greens with the stainless slide.

Years ago, I was thinking of getting an OD green XD in 9mm, and someone photoshopped what the frame would look like with a silver colored slide (if I hard chromed it).

So, I was happy when Springfield came out with that variation.

I wish they would do it with the other calibers/sizes...

Hahah. I own 2 other FN weapons. That is good enough.

I don't like the way the slide release is designed, and the gun is too big for my hand - like a USP 45.
